    Illustration for IntroductionThis work counts for Key Assignment KA3.

    Check first

    Have your KA3 Plan, your edited image, your chart from {{code:06_ka2_charts}} and your {{code:08_promo}} folder ready.

    Warm-up

    Where would a real person first see your piece? What must they understand in three seconds?

    2 - Key Concepts ~5 mins

    Keep this order in mind while you build.

    Key point

    Headline, proof (price, date, who it's for), image or chart, call to action, space

    The surface is where people see your piece, like a noticeboard or phone.

    Hierarchy means the most important words are the biggest, so they stand out first.

    A call to action tells the reader the next step, like "Ask at the Work Experience desk".

    KA3 needs text, an image and a chart or infographic.

    3 - Build the Promotional Document ~25 mins

    Now you will build your promotional piece. It counts for Key Assignment KA3.

    Open your tab in the box below, Word Online or Google Docs, and follow the steps in order. Put the words, image and chart in first, and leave colours until the end.

    If you use Canva or Slides, follow the same order and ask your teacher for help.

    4 - Common Issues ~3 mins

    Common problems

    • The image sits on top of the text. Click the image and turn on wrapping, like Square or Wrap text.
    • I can't find my chart. Open {{code:06_ka2_charts}}, take a screenshot and save it into {{code:08_promo}}.
    • My PDF is in Downloads. Move it into {{code:08_promo}} and keep the editable file beside it.
